starting tomorrow I will run 2 mile everyday for this whole month of APR and track my dopamine reseptor sensitivity at the end of the month. to see if my dopamine reseptors become more sensitive
 
Anti psychotics increase dopamine sensitivity except for invega which is neurotoxic and damage receptors

So is this about not being rested in the morning another withdrawal slde effect?

Yes it felt like invega fucked up my sleep quality badly for the first 2 months, it got a lot better at month 3, then even better at month 5, now I would say my sleep quality is about 90% recovered at month 7, I never had insomnia I could sleep no problem and even hyper slept but it felt like I didn’t get any quality rest from it.
 
remember to be clean. I was sorta the whole way through this I’m thinking I’m coming out of this like Superman and feel pretty cool about it.

Maybe it doesnt matter if you had 1 injection or 10 recovery rate is still the same

Nah it does matter I’m pretty sure anyone is better off the less injections they get, but every case is different some people get 10 shots and don’t suffer as severely as someone who takes 1 shot it depends on brain chemistry I’m sure.

I get a lot of messages from people looking for recovery stories. This forum helped me a lot when I was recovering, but I was always concerned about what happened to the people who disappeared. I made up my mind to help others find recovery,, I saw too many people relapse & get shot again or supposedly off themselves without hope

Also recently I've blocked YT and social media with blocksite because I've wanted to look at my phone less & be more productive. Resulted in checking this forum a bit more recently, I think staring at the phone light is just habitual lol trying to kick it

I think that everyone nowadays is addicted to their phones & social media I had a period of time where I went for 3-4 months with no phone this was during psychosis/invega but despite that I definitely felt lots of benefits from it, I felt increased creativity and more joy in TV, exercise, drawing, reading books, and having real conversations with people face to face there was definitely more benefits but I can’t remember them all clearly since my memory in general was bad from psychosis, all the benefits of no phone went away after I took the injections though.

No problem 🙏 these threads need some more hope a lot of people once they recover a good amount leave the thread cause it’s a trauma for them and they don’t want to think about it, helping people makes me feel good and I’ve been thinking about making my career based on that not sure exactly what I’ll be doing though.
